In no particular order….. 1)Strawberries.
You know those wax warmers that are really popular now for warming up those wax melts?.Use one of those!.
My particular model is really only semi-convenient for this purpose because of its square shape.Next time I’m in the market for one of these, I’ll definitely find one with a round shape.This one really only melts the wax in the center of its bowl so I still don’t get the full use out of my wax, but it’s so much better than just letting all that wax go to waste!
It’s also nice to be able to turn on the scent by just flicking a switch rather than always having to light it.Also, it might be just me and my nose who think this, but I’m pretty sure the candle pieces actually scent my home better than the actual little warming pellets that are meant for this thing.
So, it’s just a good situation all around!.
I do end up with a few little pieces of wick floating around in there, but that doesn’t really bother me at all.It was about 9:30 pm on a Saturday night and this.
It was such a great, quick project to do because I really only had to paint part of it to get the look I wanted.. Bam!What an update right?
I left the top as stained wood and just painted out the bottom parts.I would really like to strip the top and restain it in something a little less reddish, but I’m feeling like harsh chemical strippers are probably a bit of a no-no right now with the baby on the way.
